Device Description

Not Found

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for a device called "Aptus (Automated) Application for the Scl-70 Test System". However, it is a regulatory document and does not contain the detailed study results, acceptance criteria, or performance data that would be found in a clinical study report or a more comprehensive summary of safety and effectiveness.

Therefore, I cannot extract the specific information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria and study details. The document primarily states that the device is "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices and is thus permitted to be marketed.

To provide the requested information, I would need a different type of document, such as:

  • 510(k) Summary of Safety and Effectiveness: This document, often submitted with the 510(k) application, would typically contain the study design, acceptance criteria, and performance results.
  • Clinical Study Report: A detailed report of the clinical trials conducted.
  • Labeling or Instructions for Use (IFU): Sometimes, performance characteristics are summarized in these documents.

Based only on the provided text, here's what I can state:

  • Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance: Not available in this document.
  • Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not available.
  • Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not available.
  • Adjudication method: Not available.
  • If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done: Not available.
  • If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not available.
  • The type of ground truth used: Not available.
  • The sample size for the training set: Not available.
  • How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not available.

The document only indicates the "Scl-70 ELISA test system is intended for the manual or automated analysis of human serum for the presence of IgG antibodies Scl-70." For the detailed performance characteristics, the actual 510(k) submission or a related scientific publication would be required.

Dear Mr. Kopnitsky:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to leqally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major requlations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Druq Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Reqister. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or requlations.

{1}------------------------------------------------

Paqe 2

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling requlation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4588. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification"(21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597, or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html".

Sincerely yours,

Aptus (automated) Application for the Scl-70 ELISA Test Device Name: System

Indications for Use:

The presence of autoantibodies to a number of nuclear constituents has proven to be useful in the diagnosis of various connective tissue diseases. Although the exact etiology of autoimmune diseases is unknown, and the specific role played by autoantibodies in the onset of various autoimmune connective tissue diseases is obscure, the association and frequency of detection of these antibodies may play a key role in the diagnostic work-up of patients with suspected connective tissue diseases.

The Scl-70 ELISA test system is intended for the manual or automated analysis of human serum for the presence of IgG antibodies Scl-70.

§ 866.5100 Antinuclear antibody immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. An antinuclear antibody immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoimmune antibodies in serum, other body fluids, and tissues that react with cellular nuclear constituents (molecules present in the nucleus of a cell, such as ribonucleic acid, deoxyribonucleic acid, or nuclear proteins). The measurements aid in the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (a multisystem autoimmune disease in which antibodies attack the victim's own tissues), hepatitis (a liver disease), rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome (arthritis with inflammation of the eye, eyelid, and salivary glands), and systemic sclerosis (chronic hardening and shrinking of many body tissues).(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
